- Klelia Andriolatou (Klelia): Klelia is 19 years old and is preparing to take exams at the Music School. She grew up in Paxos and has a passion for piano and music. She is quite different from other children her age, as she does not want to lose her romance. Her acquaintance with Orestis awakens her first true love.

She is at odds with her daughter, Sophia, and has a weakness for her grandchildren. Harris had a talent for singing, but she never got to sing. She stayed on the island leaving her dreams behind and wants Klelia not to make the same mistake.
- Yannis Tsortekis (Charalampos): Husband of Maria and father of Spyros. When he drinks he becomes violent and abusive towards his wife and son. He doesn’t like music and doesn’t want his son and his wife to have anything to do with the festival or Orestis.
- Maria Kavoyianni (Maria): She runs a tavern on the island and is the wife of Charalampos and mother of Spyros. She is a woman who is afraid to tell society how much she is suffering, as she cannot escape from her abusive husband. The arrival of Orestis and her involvement in the festival will give her strength and another perspective on things.
- Yorgos Benos (Spyros): Son of Maria and Charalambos. He is oppressed and trapped in the model of the “tough” young man in the small society of the island.
